UNDERGRADUATE DEGREE PROGRAMMES

1. INTRODUCTION

Tamil Nadu Agricultural University (TNAU) is rated as the best Agricultural University
(TNAU) in India by Indian Council of Agricultural Research, New Delhi. TNAU is an
institute of excellence for higher education in Agricultural and allied subjects.
The National Institutional Ranking Framework (NIRF) of Ministry of Human Resource
Development (MHRD), GOI ranked TNAU as the second among the State Agricultural
Universities in India. TNAU ranks 44th among “All Universities” category, 68th among
“Overall” category of academic institutions and 105th in QS-BRICS.
TNAU began as an Agricultural School at Saidapet, Chennai in 1876 and blossomed as a
College in Coimbatore in 1906. In 1920, the college was affiliated to the University of Madras
w i t h t h e introduction of a three-year degree programme. Till 1946, the
Agricultural College and Research Institute, Coimbatore was the only institute for
agricultural education for the whole of South India. In 1958, it was recognized as a
Postgraduate Centre for offering Masters’ and Doctoral degrees. The Agricultural College and
Research Institute, Madurai was established in 1965. These two colleges formed the nucleus
of the Tamil Nadu Agricultural University when it was established in 1971 to offer four years
B.Sc. (Agriculture) degree programme.
In the year 1972, two more programmes i.e., B.Sc (Horticulture) and B.E (Agriculture)
were started. In 1979, the faculty of Horticulture was established. To nurture the home
grown innovations B.Sc (Home Science) was started at Madurai campus in 1980. This was
later renamed as B.Sc. (Food, Nutrition and Dietetics) from 2017 onwards based on the
recommendation of ICAR. The third Agricultural College was started at Killikulam in 1984
and the fourth at Navalur Kuttappattu, Tiruchirappalli in 1989. An exclusive B.Sc. (Forestry)
programme was started during 1985 at Coimbatore campus and later relocated to Forest
College and Research Institute, Mettupalayam in 1991.
Later, B.Sc. (Horticulture) programme was shifted to Periyakulam (1990) and B.E.
(Agriculture) was shifted to Agricultural Engineering College and Research Institute in
Kumulur (1992). B.E (Agriculture) was later renamed as B.Tech (Agricultural Engineering) in
2002. A new Horticultural College and Research Institute for Women was established during
2011 at Navalur Kuttappattu, Tiruchirappalli offering B.Sc. (Horticulture). A unique
programme, B.Sc. (Sericulture) was started during 2011 at Agricultural College and Research
Institute, Coimbatore and is being offered now at Forest College and Research Institute,
Mettupalayam.
In the backdrop of changing agricultural situation and developments in science and
technology, TNAU introduced unique technology programmes viz., B.Tech. (Food Process
Engineering) during 1998 and B.Tech. (Biotechnology) during 2002, B.Tech. (Energy and
Environmental Engineering) during 2004. B.S. (Agribusiness Management) was started during
2007 in order to capitalize the potential of developments in agricultural
information sciences.
Three more constituent agricultural colleges viz., Agricultural College and Research
Institute, Eachankottai, Thanjavur; Agricultural College & Research Institute, Vazhavachanur,
Thiruvannamalai and Agricultural College & Research Institute Kudumiyanmalai, Pudukkottai
1
were started during 2014. Moreover, 27 private colleges affiliated to TNAU offer
